If people can’t see a way out and life seems to be unbearable, they sometimes think about death. They imagine death being better when they can’t or don’t want to stand humiliation, disappointments or conflicts any longer. Actually this is not about ending one’s life but finishing what you can’t bear anymore.

Maybe you feel the same. Maybe you also think about your life being not worth living and that it end. You can of course write about that to us. We will take you seriously and we’ll help you to find out how you can feel better again. However if you clearly announce that you will commit suicide, we must react to your and our own protection. This means that we will organize help for you. Because of course we don’t want you to commit suicide!

The same goes for the fact that you write us about planning a crazed rampage for example.
